Once again, the curmudgeonly Sarah Palin didn't let a holiday pass without reminding us that she has Facebook page. On Martin Luther King Day, she posted a response to President Obama's New Yorker interview where she called on him to honor MLK by not playing the race card. The president had said that his approval rating suffers because some people don't like the idea of having a black president.
Now her post doesn't rival some of her other holiday harangues, such as her book "Good Tidings and Great Joys," a how-to-guide to fighting back against the War on Christmas, or her Veteran's Day appearance on the "Today Show" where she railed against the Affordable Care Act for the millionth time. But it was a gem just the same: an offensive exploitation of racism by accusing the president of racism.
Palin forgets that Republicans have made great use of race-baiting rhetoric over the last six years, attacking the president and his policies with coded language connecting poverty to racial stereotypes. During his 2012 presidential run, Newt Gingrich argued blacks should demand jobs and not food stamps. More recently, Heritage Action attacked food stamps and Head Start as two programs that promote a culture of dependency, code words that imply African-Americans are lazy...

Reince Priebus and Obama want to import 20 million foreign workers because it will help blacks.
Way too much power to be lost if blacks lose their victimhood and entitlement status.
What really bugs libs is that Sarah would clean the Hillabeast’s clock in an honest debate.
Really.
You’re right.
Frankly, I’m more concerned with Left-wing racism... against the Conservative Race.
Talking openly about Obama’s failed policies and quoting him verbatim = Race-baiting rhetoric

no, to get 20 million new democratic voters
Frankly, Im more concerned with Left-wing racism... against the HUMAN Race.
I have suggested before that Sarah take her message straight to black America. Look how the left are hyperventilating. She touched a nerve.
The vast preponderance of racism in this country exists on the Left, not the Right. How is Sarah Palin “exploiting right-wing racism” but Al Sharpton and Jessuh Jagmo and the Trayvonites are just seekers after justice?
That race boat done sailed and sunk. Try again ...
What a joke. USNWR accuses Republicans of “code words” while dismissing Obama’s direct statement that some people “dislike me because they dont like the idea of a black president”.
Throw a rock into a pack of dogs and the one that hollars is the one that got hit.
I stopped reading at “using coded language.” These people are hysterical. PDS is alive and well.

I know he’s serious, that’s the thing that is laughable
about them.
I know, I KNOW that he doesn’t have the understanding
to figure out that “a gem just the same: an offensive exploitation of racism by accusing the president of
racism.” is the same thing as the President exploiting
racism by accusing the American people of racism!
That is what I FIND OFFENSIVE!!!
That an American President, no matter his race would
use race as an excuse for his own failed policies
I FIND ABSOLUTELY DISGUSTING!
Even when my appreciation of the man is at zero I
find he can always do something to drag the office
down farther.
Is this satire? It sure reads like it.
